**************************************************************************
* 5. DETERMINING THE SYSTEM MODE - ONLY FOR NON-VMD/Legacy PLATFORM SERIES
**************************************************************************
***Note: This Readme document assumes that your system is running a supported Intel-based
CPU and Chipset that supports only RAID and/or AHCI modes for the PCH SATA AHCI
Controller (RAID is replaced by “Intel(R) RST Premium…” also an additional mode supporting Intel(R) Optane(TM) Memory only called “Intel(R) RST…”). If not, then this driver is not supported on your system HW. Please exit this setup.
To use this Readme effectively, you will need to know what mode the PCH SATA AHCI
controller in your system is in. The easiest way to determine the mode is to identify how
the Intel(R) SATA controller is presented within ‘Device Manager’. The following
procedures will guide you through determining the mode in Microsoft Windows 10* or higher
OS versions:
A. In Windows 10 Desktop, right click the ‘Start’ button located at the bottom left
corner of the Desktop.
B. The ‘Start’ menu will launch.
C. Scroll up and select 'Device Manager' with left mouse click.
D. In the Device Manager window, look for an entry named Storage Controllers. Left click
and expand the item. If there is an entry for an “Intel(R) brand SATA RAID” controller
(or similar entry with the “Intel” name somewhere in the entry), then the system is in
RAID mode (Intel(R) RST Premium with Intel(R) Optane(TM) Technology mode).
E. If no “Intel SATA RAID Controller” controller is listed in the step above, then the
system is not running in RAID or “Intel(R) RST..” or “Intel(R) RST Premium” mode and is in
AHCI mode (see next step 6).
F. From the Device Manager, look for an entry named 'IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers'. In AHCI
mode this entry is present, expand it and look for a “SATA AHCI” controller which
identifies the system is in AHCI mode.
**************************************************************************
* 6. INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
**************************************************************************
6.1 General Installation Notes
a. If you are installing the operating system on a computer configured for RAID or AHCI
mode, you may pre-install the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology driver using the
"F6" (Load Driver) installation method described in section 6.3 below.
b. If you’re installing the operating system on a computer configured for ‘Intel(R) Smart
Response Technology’ or ‘System Acceleration with Intel(R) Optane(TM) Technology’, you
must pre-install the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology driver using the
"F6" (Load Driver) installation method described in section 6.3 below. The Intel(R) RST pre-OS version must support the Intel(R) RST technology that you are installing to.
c. To install Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology from within the OS during runtime,
double-click on the self-extracting and self-installing setup file and answer all
prompts presented.
6.2 Intel(R) RST Windows Automated Installer*. Installation from HDD, USB, or CD-ROM
Note: This method is applicable to computers configured for RAID or AHCI mode.

steps.
Note: If you experience any difficulties making these changes to the system BIOS, please
contact the motherboard manufacturer or your place of purchase for assistance.
**************************************************************************
* 11. ENTERING THE Pre-OS USER INTERFACE
**************************************************************************
UEFI Driver/BIOS
*****************************
Use the following steps to enter the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology UEFI HII-
compliant user interface (Note: the exact steps and location of the UI is OEM platform
dependent. You must consult your platform manufacturer for these exact steps and
location of the Intel(R) RST UEFI HII UI):
1. Boot the system.
2. Press key required to enter the platform's system BIOS (e.g F2)
3. Locate the ‘Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology’ item wherever it is located in your
platform’s system BIOS menu and enter it to launch the ‘Intel(R) Rapid Storage
Technology’ text-based UEFI UI. At the top of the main page of the UI the version
is indicated in the following format:
'Intel(R) RST ww.x.y.zzzz SATA Driver’
**************************************************************************
* 12. Pre-OS STORAGE SUB-SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
**************************************************************************
UEFI Driver/BIOS HII
*****************************
The Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology - UEFI UI provides pre-OS Storage sub-system
management which enables the following capabilities:
I- RAID Volume Management
1. Create RAID Volume
Use this option to create one or two RAID volumes.
2. Delete
Click on a RAID volume then use this option to delete the RAID volume. The pre-OS
methods are the only end-user methods to delete a RAID volume that has the OS boot
files on it.
3. Reset to Non-RAID
Click on a RAID volume then click on a member disk then use this option to reset a RAID
member disk to a non-RAID pass-through disk.
4. Recovery Volume Options
If a recovery volume is present, use this option to
a. Disable Continuous Update
b. Enable Only Recovery Disk
c. Enable Only Master Disk
II – Intel(R) Optane(TM) Memory Technology Management

Use this option to disable Intel(R) Optane(TM) memory volume and return the system to a non-Accelerated
Pass-through configuration.
a. [X] Checkbox to preserve user data upon deconcatenation; Checked is the default
b. <No> Decision box to confirm deconcatenation action; Yes or No (No is default)
**************************************************************************
* 13. OPTIONS TO RESET THE RAID VOLUME in the INTEL(R) RST Pre-OS UI's
**************************************************************************
WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!!!WARNING!!!!!!!!
Before completing any of the following steps, it is recommended you Backup any wanted
data that is located on the RAID volumes being deleted or disks being reset to non-RAID
Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology - pre-OS UI provides two methods for resetting the RAID
volume:
> Delete RAID Volume
> Reset Disks to Non-RAID
Differences between the options are noted below. Users are advised to select the option
based on the situation.
13.1 Delete RAID Volume
When a RAID volume is deleted, RAID metadata on the participating disks is erased and
sector zero is cleared; as a result, the partition table and file system related data
are reset. Windows installer will not see any invalid data at the time of OS
installation. This is the recommended method for reconfiguring the RAID volume and
installing OS on it.
13.2 Reset Disks to Non-RAID
This option is used to reset the metadata on the disk which participates in more than
one RAID volume in single operation. It should be used if 'Delete RAID Volume' option
fails for any reason and to reset a disk that has been marked as Spare and offline
member. When a disk in the RAID volume is reset to non-RAID, RAID metadata is erased.
However, partition table and file system related data still exists, which may be
invalid. This might cause Windows installer to misinterpret the information available
on the 'reset disk' at the time of installation. This could result in unexpected
behavior in OS installation.
